Monticello Soccer Club - River Eagles

Providing Soccer Opportunities to Children of All Skill Levels in the Northwest Metro Area.

This is a friendly reminder that NO PETS are allowed on the soccer fields. This is a school district policy that we agree to enforce for the schools in exchange for them allowing us to use their grounds. Please leave the pets at home during soccer practices and games.

The Monticello Soccer Club is proud to announce the 2010 winners (first year for us) of our Monticello HS college scholarships:  Kevin Haider and Anna Holtman!

Kevin is moving on to the U of MN at Morris while Anna will be attending the University of WI at Eau Claire, good luck to you both!

 The plans for the Bertram Chain of Lakes Park includes plans for an athletic complex which will include soccer fields. We would like as many of the MSC soccer families as possible to support the Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park. Having a soccer complex in Monticello would be a great addition to our soccer program. Yopu may receive emails from time to time asking you to support the project, we would appreciate any effort you can give to support this great addition to the soccer program. 

Thank you 

MSC board members
